Ossia (organic)

Ossia

Ossia (Saccharomyces cerevisiae hybrid), Renaissance Yeast’s latest H₂S-preventing strain, provides a high-quality advance for organic winemakers. Making an all-natural organic wine can sometimes present its challenges. One of these is H₂S and its associated reductive character faults that cannot be minimized by conventional means such as inorganic diammonium phosphate to the must or using inorganic copper sulphate to remediate a problematic wine. Renaissance Yeast’s strains have excellent fermentation kinetics, desirable sensory characteristics, and are produced to the highest quality standards. Renaissance Yeast is the exclusive developer of a novel, patented H₂S-preventing technology that is the result of a natural trait in yeast that increases sulfur and nitrogen utilization efficiency during fermentation, thereby preventing hydrogen sulfide formation.
